Washington, Aug. 21.—Loss of millions of dollars in crops throughout the country In event of a railroad strike was the new possibility before the administration today.
The treasury department recited that agents of the federal reserve
board in tbe south, west and northwest are beginning to ask for funds
for tbe annual "crop moving" period. A tie-up of^the railroads of the
country would mean that wheat and other products now ready for the
mills would be held up indefinitely and possibly rot on tbe side track?
if stopped in transit.
This angle of the threatened gigantic strike was borne home to officials not only by reports from the treasury department but by the arrival of western railroad presidents such as Louis W. Mill, wbose father's
name was synonymous with the "empire of the northwest" and its
wealth of farm lands.
More Road Heads Meet.
More than two score railroad presidents and the 640 brotherhood
representatives held secret meetings today to continue discussion of President Wilson's proposals looking toward peace.
An outstanding feature of the gathering of railway presidents today was that there appeared no organized plan afoot to meet the situation created by the president's firm refusal to recede from his demands
on them.
Their tentative plan was to have the new group of presidents coming
to see the president separately and hear from him the same argument
they heard Saturday. They anticipated too that still other railway
executives may be called to Washington by the president, they said.
For their part the brotherhood representatives, through A. R. Garretson made It known today that they do not intend to deviate from the
president's plan.
